What did I miss?
 
So I have been purposefully staying off forums and auction sites for the last year or so. What have I missed? Any new scandals? What's hot or cold in the hobby? From a quick glance I assume post war is taking a hit.

Leon let Kevin Mize and "Nuns Wagner" Andrew back on the board...

Nothing. Take another year off and check back then. :D

Lol, I may have to. 7% rates aren't good for business.

Mize is back? I haven't looked through the whole bst, but didn't see any 9 OCs.

No, joke.

This isn't April 1, is it?

I'd say the Evan Mathis trimming saga was/is pretty good. Prices have kept going up, for the most part.

With a few changes, MLB seems alive and well despite the unimaginable amounts of money being thrown around.

I don’t know about everyone else, but while you were away I found a 1919 World Series program in the wild that I’m stupid excited about!

Read longtime Net54 member Adam Warshaw's insightful Substack post entitled

"Ennui, Anyone?"

That is what you missed.

I tried to search but couldn't find it. Do you mind sharing a link?

Just had to look that up. So he actually posted a video showing how he trims cards?

You missed DeGrom actually pitched a few games

When you left he was probably on the IL and you came back and guess what

He is on the IL

PWCC's subprime lending loan program defaulted and they were forced to assimilate into FanaticsBorg.

He was my number one drafted pitcher and has now torpedoed my fantasy team. He reminds me of Anthony Davis. They are both really good players (when healthy and not hurt)

Lower and middle grade has come down, but the good stuff keeps going up.

From my perspective, I will call 2023 the Malaise:

a general feeling of discomfort, illness, or uneasiness whose exact cause is difficult to identify.

Seems like collectors dealers and everyone in between is trying to figure where they are and where they need to be moving forward.

Thanks for the heads up on that blog. He's right on point & his worries are many of our own.
